FFF CompatibilityThe candidate is in a 2-lead axial DO-15 package, whereas the original K2401F1 is in a 3-pin TO-202 package.Axial leaded package versus a tabbed THT package.Matches all electrical specifications including the specialized Multipulse™ triggering characteristics for lamp ignitors.Requires physical accommodation from TO-202 footprint to DO-15 axial package.Axial DO-15 form factor instead of a tabbed TO-202.Meets the 220V-250V breakover rating and offers superior ignition pulse generation performance.
AI Summary

K2401F1 by Littelfuse: Diac/Sidac Thyristor 220 ~ 250V TO-202.

This is the official axial replacement for the obsolete TO-202 K2401F1. It retains the same Multipulse™ characteristics and voltage ratings but requires lead bending or board adaptation to fit the original TO-202 footprint.

  • Active lifecycle status and currently in production
  • Direct functional equivalent with matching 220V-250V breakover voltage and 160mA hold current
  • Same manufacturer (Littelfuse) ensures high parameter consistency
  • Requires footprint modification or manual lead forming during assembly to mount on a TO-202 pattern.

This variant belongs to the same Multipulse™ series but features an optimized hold current of 30mA max (vs 150mA for the original). This enhances high-voltage pulse generation in ignition circuits while sharing the same axial DO-15 footprint as the standard K2401GRP.

  • Active and widely available from distributors
  • Features 'L' suffix indicating increased high-voltage pulse generation capability
  • Lower holding current (30mA vs 150mA) allows for easier and more rapid triggering
  • Different package form factor requires board or lead modifications.
  • The lower holding current (30mA vs 150mA) might affect circuit commutation in specific non-ignitor designs.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The Littelfuse K2401F1 is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
